Everton Sack Dyche

Post by shabba » Thu Jan 09, 2025 10:27 pm

I see Everton have parted company with Sean Dyche, I mean if you were looking for a manager to keep you up - its him!

I guess Moyes is of similar style so might do OK for them, Jose would be an interesting one as he can often get a team going, before after 1-3 years the bubble burts badly.

Its a big risk either way, they were doing well defensively and picking up some points - just not able to score goals. It'll depend if they can add to their squad in January and if a new manager can pick them up, otherwise they could be in big trouble.

I always think its a huge risk for these clubs to sack a manager, if you get a new one in and it doesn't work then what do you do? Seems to have not worked out for Saints or Leicester.

So glad we don't have this problem!

Yes, let's hope all these managerial sackings Southampton, Leicester, Wolves, West Ham and Everton back fire and they are all sh*t. 🤣🤣

I won't get this time back but It were destined to fail from day one. Shame to see a once proud club name reduced to desperate need to bring in recent appointments such as Lampard, Benitez, Allardyce and Koeman etc. Ancelotti was an interesting one that thought could maybe work however Dyche was simply another bizarre appointment that was always going to end in failure. The way ahead for them being Don't bring in former ex-players (of other teams) with little to no managerial experience or go for more established candidates that may have done well elsewhere but are only going to fail at another.

They're viewing to bring back Moyes of all things. Endured over 10 years of it, were with it just about every game of every season and he's similar to McCarthy in a true sense. Can produce 1 or 2 productive seasons where you could challenge or be on the verge of accomplishment but for the most part suffering intolerable tentative play with no real offense. Content to play not to lose and mid-league safety being a primary target. If they have any sense they'll forget the return and focus on something far more viable. However If they're looking to merely survive and scramble above the relegation line it may just work for them.

Although sense doesn't seem to have been in abundance there with some of the recent appointments made. No real identity of direction, no real commitment to succeed, they just seemed fit to bring in succession of names that were always going to fall short. Then again this is a club name that hasn't been Champions of England since 1987 and it's now 30 years since a last actual trophy won. Therefore you got to accept you can't get back the past or they've become so adrift from past contenders it's been a situation of lost hope for considerable time.

The Fridekins should steady it or at least halt any immediate further decline but is it a long term solution, you have to wonder. Getting rid of Dyche was imperative although someone should have taken action before it came to pass. Believe now any relegation won't occur, last nights Peterborough victory is one step forward in the right direction and with certain personnel removed from the club set-up and aforementioned new ownership in place, you have to believe more good will come from the time ahead than potential negatives.

It really must be something bestowed upon Everton fans, or location, --->> to actually BE an Everton fan. Can't be choice. Has to be the most "un-equal" derby rival in the world, never mind just the UK. Maybe Bristol City & Rovers, (but neither have any history) or certainly Manchester before Citeh went "Arab" ---->> but Liverpool FC & Everton? I mean in that city, in terms of honours, Everton are closer to Tranmere than Liverpool! (Joking with that last part there), but in reality, the shadow cast by the Red Side of Liverpool is staggering.

I think your comparison to Tranmere isn't far off the mark, marko tbh :lol:
